Journal Profile: How Falcon Structures' Stephen Shang finds work-life balance as busy CEO

Our weekly Journal Profiles aim to bring you into the careers and lives of influential Central Texans. Work-life balance is crucial for this CEO of a company turning shipping containers into offices and entertainment venues. That’s why he prioritizes it with employees: “I’ve always emphasized it to the people who work with me, that you’re no good to me if you’re burned out, so make sure you take the time to take care of yourself, so that when we come here, we can be at our best. Rest is just as much part part of work as work is — productive work. If you look at ancient wisdom and the ancient religions, there is built into those kinds of philosophies a time for rest, because they realize how important that is.”
